It’s about time to start feeding new crop hay if you haven't already started. Generally, feed is the largest cost for horse and livestock owners, and the quality of feed greatly affects animal health and production. Choose to attend a discussion on equine nutrition and feeding with Dr. Devan Catalano, CSU Equine Specialist, or ruminant nutrition and feeding with Lyndsay Gonzalez, Boulder County SAM Coordinator. Look at, touch, and smell different types and qualities of hay with corresponding lab analyses. We will cover what to look for when purchasing hay, hay quality, interpreting hay analyses, and best feeding practices.

Registration is required for this activity.
